In Sickness and in Wealth by Rosemary Stevens, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

American hospitals represent a unique combination of public and private institutions. At the same time, they are charities, businesses, social welfare homes, and icons of science. In Sickness and in Wealth helps us to understand this huge and contradictory industry. Stevens illustrates that throughout this century, voluntary not-for-profit hospitals have been profit-maximizing enterprises, despite viewing themselves as charities serving the community. | In Sickness and in Wealth by Rosemary Stevens, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
